1. SCHOOL

I can see you in the morning when you go to school
Don't forget your books,
You know you've got to learn the golden rule,
Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work
And be like Johnnie - too-good,
Well don't you know he never shirks
He's coming along..

After School is over you're playing in the park
Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out
- And you're full of doubt

Don't do this and don't do that
What are they trying to do?
- Make a good boy of you
Do they know where it's at?
Don't criticise, they're old and wise
Do as they tell you to
Don't want the devil to
Come out and put your eyes

Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
But while I am still living, I've just got this to say
It's always up to you if you want to be that
Want to see that
Want to see that way
you're coming along..


2. BLOODY WELL RIGHT

So you think your schooling's phony
I guess it's hard not to agree
You say it all depends on money
And who is in your family tree

Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say

Ha-ha you're bloody well right
You know you're right to say
Yeah-yeah you're bloody well right
You know you're right to say
Me, I don't care anyway!

Write your problems down in detail
Take them to a higher place
You've had your cry, no, I should say wail
In the meantime hush your face
Right, quite right, you're bloody well right

Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say


3. HIDE IN YOUR SHELL

Hide in your shell 'cause the world is out to bleed you for a ride
What will you gain making your life a little longer?
Heaven or hell, was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel?
Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker

Too frightening to listen to a stranger
Too beautiful to put your pride in danger
You're waiting for someone to understand you
But you've got demons in your closet
And you're screaming out to stop it
Saying life's begun to cheat you
Friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now
'Cause it's sure time you gained control
If I can help you, if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know
Well, let me show you the nearest signpost
To get your heartback and on the road
If I can help you, if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know.

All through the night as you like awake and hold yourself so tight
What do you need, a second-hand-movie-star to tend you?
I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love
How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes?

Too frightening- the fire's getting colder
Too beautiful- to think you're getting older
You're looking for someone to give an answer.
But what you see is just an illusion
You're surrounded by confusion
Saying life's begun to cheat you
Friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears...
... Just let me know
I want to know...
I want to know you...
Well let me know you
I want to feel you
I want to touch you
Please let me near you
Can you hear what I'm saying?
Well I'm hoping, I'm dreamin', I'm prayin'
I know what you're thinkin'
See what you're seein'
Never ever let yourself go

Hold yourself down, hold yourself down
Why d'ya hold yourself down?
Why don't you listen, you can
Trust me,
There's a place I know the way to
A place there is need to feel you
Feel that you're alone
Hear me

I know exactly what you're feelin'
'Cause all your troubles are whithin you
Please begin to see that I'm just bleeding to
Love me, love you
Loving is the way to
Help me, help you
- Why must we be so cool, oh so cool,?
Oh, we're such damn fools...


4. ASYLUM

Jimmy Cream was keen, his brain wal always winnin',
I can't keep tabs on mine, it's really quite a joke
I see him down the road, I ask if he'd be willing
To lend me 15p - I'm dying for a smoke
Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum
I'm just as sane as anyone
It's a just a game I play for fun - for fun.
I told em - look! - I said I'm not the way you're thinkin,
Just when I'm down, I'll be a clown, I'll play the fool.
Please don't arrange to have me set to no asylum
It's just a game I play for fun - for fun.
Will he take a sailboat ride?
He is very likely to,
Will he feel good inside?
He ain't very likely to,
Will he tell you he's alive?
He is always trying to
But nothin', no nothin', does he say
In the morning when the day's begun
- 'Hello Good morning, how are you?'
And in the evening or the noonday sun
- 'What a lovely afternoon!'
Well I've been living next to you

Bluesy Monday is the one day that they come here,
When they haunt me and taunt me in my cage.
I mock them all, they're feelin' small, they got no answer
They're playin' dumb but I'm just lauging as they rage
Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum
It's only a game I play for fun
I've been foolin' everyone - everyone.
Will he take a sailboat ride?
He is very likely to
Will he fool good insidie?
He ain't ever likely to
Will he tell you he's alive?
He is always tryin' to
But nothin', no nothin' does he vere say
In the morning when the day's begun
- 'Do you think it looks like rain'?
And in the evening or the noonday sun
- 'You know I nearly missed my train'
Well I've been living next to you my friend
But what kind of friend are you?
Is it the beginning or the sorry end?
Will I ever see it through?
I've never been insane
Oh what's the game?
I believe I'm dying...
He's mad, mad, mad...
Not quite right...


5. SISTER MOONSHINE

Ooo-when I was a small boy,
Well, I could see the magic in a day,
But, now I'm just a poor boy,
Well, maybe it's the price you have to pay,
If you lock your dreams away
If no-one wants to listen.

What's the story,
I wish I'd been a minstrel,
Just think of all the maidens I could call,
Oh-I wish I'd been a gypsy,
Then maybe I could read the crystal ball,
'Cause surrounded by these walls,
Just makes me feel uneasy.

I said hey, Sister Moonshine
Won't you send me a little sun
I said hey, Sister moonshine
Who's a stranger to everyone.

So, -MAKE US ALL LAUGH-
Make us all cry
-MAKE US ALL GIVE-
Make us all try
Give us a secret, show us the light,
Well, strike up the music, light up the sky.

Mmm-If I was a lion,
Well, I could be the king off all the plains,
Mmm-If is was an eagle,
Well, maybe I could fly above the rains,
Oh, fly above the pain
But, I know I'm only foolin'

I said hey, Sister Moonshine,
Won't you send me a little sun,
I said hey, Sister Moonshine,
Who's a stranger to everyone.

So, -MAKE US ALL LAUGH-
Make us all cry,
-MAKE US ALL GIVE-
Make us all cry,
I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I said hey, Sister Moonshine,
I said hey, said hey
I said hey, I said hey Sister Moonshine.


6. JUST A NORMAL DAY

RD- Woke up cryin' with the break of dawn, and,
I looked up and the sky,
The air was still, yet all the leaves were falling,
Can you tell me why?

RH- Well, I just don't know the reason,
I don't know what to say,
It just seems a normal day,
And, I've got to live my own life,
I just can't spare the time,
But, you've got strange things on your mind

RD- Well, I just feel ,that every minute's wasted,
My life is unreal,
And anyway, I guess, I'm just not rated,
At least twice, that's how I feel

RH- Well, I just don't know the reason,
I don't know what to say;
It just seems a normal day
And, I've got to live my own life,
I just can't spare the time;
But, you've got strange things on your mind.

RD- Eat a lot, sleep a lot,
Passing the time away,
Maybe I'll find my way,
Who am I kidding?
Yes, it's just myself.


7. ANOTHER MAN'S WOMAN

If there's no way of knowing where's the answer,
You should know if you need me by now, tell me how.
You saw me in the first place,
Who d'you think I am
How can you be so two-faced
And tell me where I stand
Yeah, we've been here once before,
I see you by the door,
You said you knew and all were calling,
Yeah, you know you just can't lose,
All you have to do is choose, let me in on where your heart is.

(Chorus)
You ain't nothing but another man's woman,
Living on another man's land;
At night I hear a hound dog callin,
A callin' me a cheatin' man.
I tell you somethin', I need good lovin', but you don't understand,
At night I see you cannonball comin'
To blow me to the promised land.

If there's no-way of showing where your love lies,
Is it me?, is it him?, or no-one;
What will be done?
About the mess you made me,
Oh don't you give a damn,
You're gonna drive me crazy,
It's more than I can stand,
'Round and 'round we always go
First it's yes and then it's no,
Oh whatever keeps me sane?
I'm so helpless, can't you see?
Did you cast a spell on me,
Say you love me please, I'm praying

(Chorus)


8. LADY

Lady, you come across the water,
Well don't you think you oughta?
Be waiting a while,
Are you acting, on what your heart has told you,
Is nothing gonna' hold you, from flying away, a-ha
Flying away a-ha, flying away.

'Cause there's nowhere to go,
Though the road is out stretching before you,
And the farther you go,
I said,
-Ain't nothing gonna get you to heaven-
I said,
-Ain't nothing gonna get you to heaven-
And you know just who you are
And you know that there's something between us,
And you like what you feel, but
-I can tell that you're not gonna turn back-
-Well I can tell that you're not gonna turn back-
And don't you know I'm a little bit sad, oh-no

Oh-la-la-la-la (4x) Arrgh (3x)

Mister, you better get a move on
You better get a fix on,
Mmm-you better walk straight.
I said Lady, oh just take me if you want me, oh,
Take me as you find me,
Oh, I'm needing your love so bad (3x)

And there's nowhere to go,
Though the road is out stretching before you,
And the farther you go,
I said,
-Ain't nothing gonna get you to heaven-
I said,
-Ain't nothing gonna get you to heaven-
And you know just who you are
And you know that there's something between us, and,
You like what you feel, but,
-I can tell that you're not gonna turn back-
But,
-I can tell that you're not gonna turn back-
And don't you know I'm a little bit sad, sad, sad, sad.
(Takin' the long way, and no turning back)


9. DREAMER

Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said "Far out, what a day, a year, a laugh it is!"
You know, well you know you had it comin' to you,
Now there's not a lot I can do

Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer;
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no!
I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a laugh it is!"
You know, well you know you had it comin' to you,
Now there's not a lot I can do.

Well work it out someday

If I could see something
You can see anything you want boy
If I could be someone
You can be anyone, celebrate boy.
If I could do something
Well you can do something,
If I could do anything
Well can you do something out of this world?

Take a dream on a Sunday
Take a life, take a holiday
Take a lie, take a dreamer
dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along

Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
Oh no!


10. RUDY

Rudy's on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line
He don't want to get there, but he needs time
He ain't sophisticated, nor well-educated
After all the hours he wasted, still he needs time.
He needs time - he needs time for livin',
He needs time - for someone just to see him.
He ain't haid no lovin'
For no reason or rhyme
And the whole world's above him.
Well it's not as though he's fat-
No there's more to this than that-
See he tries to play it cool-
Wouldn't be nobody fool.

Rudy thought that all good things comes to those that wait
But recently he could see that it may come too late.

All through your life, all through the years
Nobody loved, nobody cared.
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as I might, I can't hold back the tears
How can you live without love, it's not fair?
Someone said give but I just didn't dare.
What good advice are you waiting to hear?
Hearing's alright for them that's all there
You'd better gain control now
You'd better show'em all now
You'd better make or break now
You'd better give and take now
You'll have to push and shove now
You'll have to find some love now
You'd better gain control now.
Now he's just come out the movie.
Numb of all the pain,
Sad but in a while he'll soon be
Back on his train...


11. IF EVERYONE WAS LISTENING

The actors and jesters are here
The stage is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain
And no-ones quite certain whose play it is
How long ago, how long
If only we had listened thein.
If wed known just how right we were going to be.
For we dreamed a lot
And we schemed a lot
And we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart.

If everyone was listening you know
Thered be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown
To bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall

Well, what is your costume today?
Who are the props in your play?
you're acting a part which you thought from the start
Was an honest one.
Well how do you plead?
An actor indeed!
Go re-learn your lines,
You don't know what you've done
The finales begun.

If everyone was listening you know
Thered be a chance that we could save the show,
Who'll be the last clown
To bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall.


12. CRIME OF THE CENTURY

Now they're planning the crime of the century
Well what will it be?
Read all about their schemes and adventuring
It's well worth a fee
So roll up and see
And they rape the universe
How they've gone from bad to worse
Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory?
Rip off the masks and let see.
But that's no right - oh no, what's the story?
There's you and there's me
That can't be right.
